There is no default license for code on CPAN.  The "Unknown" on the CPAN page
should be a reasonable clue to that.  You must actually inspect the source to
determine the license.

All I can see is this in Nagios/NMSCA/Client/CommandLine.pm:

    NSCA Perl Client 0.1
    Copyright (c) 2006 Matthew O'Connor (matthew\@canonical.org)
    Last Modified: 04-10-2006
    License: GPL
    Encryption Routines: $encrypt

Which would seem to suggest GPL+ (and certainly not "GPL+ or Artistic" as you
have), but honestly it would be better if you contact the author for
clarification.  If you can obtain a statement of the license via email, you can
include the text of the email in the package.  If you can't get clarification
for whatever reason then I think GPL+ would do.
